Always trying to live in the present. And it’s always a
struggle.
This past month has been a blast. We had a group of college
kids here for a week, and then a family here for a couple weeks, and both were
really fun to hang out with.
And now they are gone. And I have to find the adventure in
the mundane by living fully in the moment and with God.
This past week I was able to go with my girlfriends to
Guatemala for a couple days, traveling and shopping and it was amazing. We
ended our trip back in Ceiba at the beach and went snorkeling with the one
family.
Not only was I able to have a break this past week, but I
have gotten to go on many adventures with the groups, on hikes, and swimming in
different amazing places.
Being bored out of my mind cause its so quiet, I have
learned that adventures may be fun while they last, but if you don’t seek God
in the midst of them… they aren’t really worth it.
Yeah everything that I got to do was fun, but it is just as
unfulfilling as any other thing. But I can’t replace God, true life, with
adventure and trying to find “life” outside of Him.
It doesn’t matter what I am seeking to fill my void, God is
still the only person that can fill it.
I think lately and for a while now, I have tried to fill
that void with adventures instead of seeking an exciting life in Him.
